A safe space to talk, reflect and move forward.

I am Carla Harnell, a professionally trained counsellor based in Chelmsford, Essex. I offer a safe, confidential and supportive space where you can talk openly, without judgement, pressure or expectation.

My approach is warm, empathetic and down-to-earth. I work alongside you at your pace, helping you to feel truly heard, understood and supported as we navigate whatever you are facing together.

I offer in-person counselling in Chelmsford, online sessions, telephone counselling, and Walk and Talk therapy. Alongside counselling, I integrate elements of coaching where appropriate, helping you to gain clarity, build confidence and take positive, practical steps forward.

I am a member of the Complementary Medical Association and accredited with the Accredited Board of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (ABCAP), and I am committed to maintaining high professional and ethical standards within my practice.
